Possible new twist in Staten Island fire murder-suicide
Thus far authorities have been focusing their investigation on the family's oldest son, 14-year old C.J. Romoy. But the New York Post is reporting that the handwriting appearing in fragmented note discovered in the charred aftermath, showing the scrawled words "am sorry," more closely fits handwriting by his mother, Leisa Jones.
The report says a police source close to the investigation indicated as much, but in a call made to police spokesmen this morning by the Advance, officials said they would not confirm the new development and that the investigation was ongoing.
Meanwhile, the father of the teenager--who had recently been in trouble for setting fires elsewhere--told the Post his son couldn't have committed the crime.
"If anybody could've done it, it would've been the mother because of her temper," Earlston Raymond told the paper from his home in Jamaica.
